Tuesday Things.
1. Are you a sweet or savory breakfast person? Years ago I preferred sweet, but now I only want savory breakfasts. Forever and ever.
2. I am so very intrigued by olive oil ice cream. Love the salty element.
3. Your cold brew suggestions last week were amazing. So many of you recommended Stok. I’ve been drinking that off and on for a few years but it seems to not really have much flavor? What am I doing wrong!
4. How to take a digital detox this summer.
5. We’re taking a little staycation later this week and I need all of your hotel room essentials.
6. TV things!! I have not watched Stranger Things yet – I just can’t seem to get into it even though I loved the first few seasons. Thoughts? Also, I LOVE Hacks. It’s the best.
7. I have been waiting for good peaches to make peach cobbler for what seems like months. I can’t wait for the first batch. Do you remember my drama with the peach truck last year? Heh.
8. The secret to any lasting friendship.

I am mostly a sweet breakfast person with a side of savory. Have you tried Wide Awake cold brew ? I only find it in a few stores but to me it’s better than Stok, they make an espresso blend and a dark roast, plus it has the least “bottled” flavor I’ve tried. I haven’t watched Stranger things yet either, but have heard its really in detailed and gives you a good background on the characters.
Yes the same thing happened to me with changing from sweet to savory breakfast  cravings right before I turned 30.  Now if I want to make a sweet breakfast treat I have to serve it on the weekend on the side lol.
Stok is bland. You aren’t doing anything wrong. You need the jet fuel equivalent. High Brew is the way to go. https://www.highbrewcoffee.com/collections/coffee
Also savory breakfast all the way. I just spent all 9 months of my pregnancy with an eggs aversion and a full three months post. I have alot of eggs to make up.
sweet and savory combo! egg and cheese on an english muffin with some jam! or if out, french toast with a side of bacon obvi :)
I was shocked with the Stok suggestions. I would recommend 100 times cometeer. I am a coffee snob, I have a breville expresso maker and we’ll cometeer blows me away for when I’m not at home!
Last night I started watching Stranger Things with my 16yo Charlotte,
It’s our mother daughter bonding night, pizza and Root beer. Tonight its Tacos, lime bubbly H20 and 3rd show. It’s getting more interesting……
That looks like a Birthday Cake…I love birthday cake!
P.S. can you believe I brought her to your Northeastern book signing when you were Pregnant with Max? WOW!
Just here to say that olive oil ice cream is amazing — it’s my go-to any time I am at Salt & Straw. Also amazing and sometimes easier to procure: vanilla ice cream with a bit of olive oil and a bit of sea salt caramel sauce. So unexpectedly delicious!Â
We’ve been drinking the Cometeer pods (aluminum, so recyclable) for the past few months and they are delicious.Â
Yes, I fell prey to an Instagram ad :)
Peach Truck??? I didn’t read the story last year but maybe I wish I had. OMG I signed up for a Peach Truck delivery in April. My first box was utterly destroyed. They sent a new box, again…destroyed. They refunded my money instantly.
The only viable cold brew option is Chameleon Cold Brew. It comes in a couple flavors and is concentrated. I don’t add water or milk bc I like my coffee strong, but it is delicious either way.
ugh so i LOVED chameleon for years – and now no where around me sells it. it is such a bummer!
Have you ever watched The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel? Came out in 2017. 4 seasons as of now and should be one more coming. It is so good even just for the fashion alone! I would have loved to live in that era. We are watching a show right now called The Staircase. Based on a true story and it’s also pretty good too!Â
